is living in a foster home with two adults and a large dog with whom she easily gets along. Nala follows her foster parents around and always wants to be close to them. Nala’s foster parents work from home so Nala has access to outside time frequently and has proven to be fully housebroken. Nala would like to sleep in bed with her foster parents but will sleep on her dog bed or in her crate with the door open when encouraged to do so. She easily shares toys, food and water with the other dog in the home, and the two dogs enjoy rough housing and wrestling. Nala is very good about her paws getting cleaned too - she just seeks out pets when she’s done. Nala seems to know a few commands and will sit for a treat. In addition, she walks nicely on the leash and doesn't pay attention to other dogs, squirrels etc., nor barks at them. She greets house guests, neighbors, and the neighbors dog at the fence with a wagging tail and ready for affection or play. Nala’s foster parents are crating her when they leave the home since she is newer to foster care. Based on what we have witnessed in foster care, we think Nala might be a great therapy dog. This dog has been examined by a licensed veterinarian, spayed, inoculated against diseases, dewormed, tested for heartworm disease (negative) and placed on monthly preventative, plus microchipped.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
